Re: BIF to trim leading 0's

      C          Eval         TextField = 'value: ' + 
%TrimL(%EditC(nbrfld:'N'))

where TextField is your new formatted field and where nbrfld = your value 
field.

        Subject:        BIF to trim leading 0's

Hi,

                 Is there a BIF to trim leading 0's off of a numeric field 
AND reduce
the field size accordingly?

                 i.e. a field with a value of 000012345
                 I want to print:
                 "value: 12345"
                 instead of 
                 "value: 000012345"
                 or
                 "value:        12345"

Thanks from snowy Upstate NY,
Dave
